Drowned under his Touch Chapter 74
74It had been about a week since Alita saw her mum at the hospital. They talked on the phone but that wasn't enough for Alita. She was missing her too much and wanted to see how she was doing. Dr. Chris's treatment is taking longer than expected.Alita had decided to lay off visiting the hospital as it had been crawling with cops ever since she buried cocaine inside Ana. She had been scared they might recognize her from the security footage of the hospital.They were days when she waited for the police to come and arrest her but they never came. She had almost abandoned her plan from ample fright but somehow managed to hold on to it.Her mother had been at the hospital for about a month under rigorous treatments. She always complained about the injections but then stopped after about three weeks.Alita was breathless and her body was bouncing up and down due to Benson's thrusts but she managed to speak. She said, "I have to go and see my mum today." She sustained a moan and dug her f

75Martha stared keenly at her computer screen as she sat on her bed, keeping the laptop on her lap.She had collected all the tapes from the hospital and the station so she can watch them again and try to figure out who the con artist is. She had watched the tapes over and over again and was still watching them.John had convinced her to take a break while he did all the necessary work so she stayed at home. But she couldn't really rest or even sleep as her mind bugged her with a thousand questions to which she had no answers."There's got to be something here," she whispered as she squinted her eyes while rewinding the tapes from the hospital back to the beginning.After watching everything from start to finish and still not getting anything, she gingerly tossed the laptop to the side of the bed and threw her head backward so that she would lie on her back on the bed.She had been married before but her husband was murdered. It was why she became a detective so she would find her hu

"Would you let me take the car?" Alita blinked at Benson as she pulled away from him. "Right now, you can take whatever you want and it wouldn't matter as long as you are as happy as you make me," Benson muttered. She smirked and wrapped her hands around her neck. She pulled him closer, raised her heels, and kissed him as her body mashed against his. She pulled her face from his and said, "Thanks... you make me happy, BA.""Same, Alita," he smiled after cupping her face in his hand. "You can take whatever you want in my life as long as you are mine through and through," he peered into her eyes and pecked her head, then pressed her head to his chest. She fit perfectly under his jaw. "I love you, Benson Astor," she muttered in a moan. "I love you too," he said in a rasp."I want to stay here and hug you all day but I have to go see my mum now if we are going to that party that I dread so much," she said as she listened to his heartbeat."You dread it?" He asked, pulling out of the h

77As Martha walked back to the car, she brought out the phone and examined it."How did she get this?" She asked herself and then raised her head to John who was already standing by the car. "It's Ana's," she added."What the hell? How come we didn't get this amongst her belongings? How does she have it?" John shook his head side to side as he flickered the phone in his hand, looking straight at Martha."I have no idea. Don't look at me like that," she raised her chin and entered the car."This just keeps getting more interesting. I feel like we can land a big one with this one," he said as he sat in the driver's seat after opening the door."It feels bigger and shadier than what meets the eyes," she said and pursed her lips. "And she is rooting for Mr. Astor," she nodded."Actually," John said keeping his eyes on the road."You think she actually saw her?" Martha said, pale-faced as she turned to look at John."We don't really know for sure. We still don't know her angle in this so

John staggered to the table as her weight pulled him forward. He set her on the table as they smooched their lips while thie4 hands ransacked their bodies to take off every piece of clothing in their way.He inclined his head and dug into her neck smothering kisses and nibbles on her pale skin. She moaned and pressed his head down on her neck, urging him to do more.She pushed him away from her and stared at him for a bit and then said, "Take your pants off and then take mine off." She peered into his eyes with a deep longing in hers. Her body had missed and long-needed the storing he was giving her.She had masturbated a few times to blow off some steel but it never did her any good afterward. It just made her hornier to the point of fierce frustration that only amplified her loneliness. She couldn't picture herself fucking another man. Her husband always came to mind and the thought of him at those moments mellowed the flames in her body. But that only lasted a few days and over tim

"I know you're thinking I am crazy and you would have never imagined any of this happening but…" Martha looked down at his cock slowly slipping out of her as it softened. She wrapped her hands around his hips and pulled him closer until there was no space between the -skin to skin. She giggled and looked up at him, saying, "the part where you cum inside me is icing on the cake for me.His eyes grew bigger and he inclined his head. "This is a different person than the Martha Stewart I know. How you jumped on me like that… and I'm still in your grip. You have really strong thighs," he said nodding his head."Don't judge a book by its cover and leave my strong thighs to yoga," she smiled smugly to herself."Right," he pursed his lips and said, "I won't forget in a hurry. You wouldn't even let me out of you. That's just greedy.""Yes, I am greedy. You've got to be greedy if you have stayed four years without sex," she blinked numerously and then looked away from his face."That explains w

"You took your time," the corner of Benson's mouth quirked as he turned to Alita's direction after hearing her come in. "You damn precious time," he turned his head back to his phone."Hey…" Alita drawled, making a steeple of her fingers in front of her and taking long nervous steps toward him. "My mum's a little clingy… and she didn't give a tinker's damn when I told her I didn't have much time to stay with her. She wouldn't stop telling me how nice Dr. Chris had been to her recently," she looked downward thoughtfully and continued, saying, "Uncomfortably nice…" she sneered and raised her face to Benson when she was a few inches away from him. "I'm sorry, okay, I tried but she wouldn't let me go I just couldn't leave her. And I stopped on my way back to give a phone to a friend of mine who dearly needed it… that one is on me. I am sorry," she knelt before him.She jerked himself off the couch and extended his hands to grab her hands and pull her up. "Don't fucking kneel, Alita," he t

"What the actual fuck, Benson?" Anita screamed, splaying her hands in the air as she skipped to the bed where Benson had carefully laid the dress he had Luke bring to the house for her. She screamed and turned to look at him when she was about a foot away from the dress. "I was scared you be this outrageous with getting me a dress to wear," she hugged herself after waving her hand over the length of the dress. "But then, outrageous us really beautiful, though I am ultimately terrified of wearing this," she placed her palm on her chest as it thumped against her ribs as though It'll break out of the cage."I hoped you would like it," Benson said, nervously ruffling his hands through his hair as he slightly bounced on his foot. He pocketed his hands and to a few steps away from the door and closed it behind him. "So… uh, do you like it?""Are you kidding me? This is a sleeveless chapel designer evening gown with a thigh-high side slit and a lot of shiny…" her eyes bulged and her jaw sank

It took a few days for things to come back to normal between Alita and Benson. It almost felt like the getting-to-know each other phase of their relationship just with serious sexing and less conversations, and she was sleeping on the same bed with him, yet.Alita had changed a bit in about a month they were separated. She had gatherer enough money to start her dream styling firm to incorporate her into the fashion industry, where she had always believed she belonged, which meant she had no time for nannying, although it wasn't all that necessary because she was used to taking Julie with her already. The problem was that Benson missed her presence more at home.They managed and in no time, came back to full connectivity.Benson kept his break up with Alita away from his mother. He couldn't afford her drama. And she was going to scold him for letting Alita go.Alita too didn't tell anyone. Sarah thought her disappearance was because Benson impregnated his ex-wife. She was shocked when

Benson stayed in his house almost emptying his bar. He switched his phone off so nobody would disturb him. He was devastated. He had been living a lie all the while. Many times, Sarah and Luke came to look for but he never came out. It didn’t look like he was in the house.He just had to call off their engagement. She went too far and he couldn’t live with it. He couldn’t help but imagine how his life would have been if Alita came out and told him she Julie was his flesh and blood.It was unbelievable. Chris had assured him that he was impotent and that they had tried everything but nothing worked. He had to know for sure and the only way to that is to go back to the beginning.For the first time ever since that day, Benson went out of the house. He went to the hospital to meet and confront Chris about what Alita had told. There had been too many lies and falsehood around his life in the recent days and knowing this one truth or lie, whichever it would turn out to be, would be liberat

“I was scared you would leave me if I told so I didn’t. This is me as I am, covetous. I don’t regret keeping this away from you but I am sorry I did. I mean it when I say I would do anything to keep you with me forever, and this—this was something I thought I had to do. I love you and I don’t want to lose you,” he peered into her eyes. “Please don’t hate me. Don’t stop loving me. I there were many times I wanted to tell you but how does a man walk up to his dear love and tell her to forget about any dream of ever having her own children?”“I knew, Benson,” Alita looked down as she pressed her lips together. “I knew if I stayed with you, I wouldn’t have any children but it didn’t matter to me because I love you so I stayed. I got so wrapped up in my mind with jealousy and contempt that it escaped my mind. I felt threatened and intimidated by her that I let her get in my head with her selfish words,” she leaned of the wall and held her hands in front of her.“You knew. How?” Benson’s br

The moment long waited for was there, and Alita wore a smile that evening as Charity stated she was leaving. It felt unreal that the whole ominous atmosphere was clearing already.“It is nice having you,” Alita waved her hand at Charity. “You can pop and high any time you want,” she lied.I don’t want to ever see you here again.As the door slid open, Alita shut her eyes and drew in a long breath, absorbing the relief in the air. She had missed the feeling. Her joy was cut short when she heard Charity’s voice.Haven’t you left?“I can’t go like this,” CHarity exclaimed, shaking her head as she shut her eyes. “I wanted to keep it to myself, but I just can’t,” she sniffled.Alita glanced at Benson, and he bobbed his head. “What are you talking about?” she held her hand to her chest.“He knows,” Charity pointed at Benson.Alita turned to Benson and batted her lashes numerously at him.“Know what exactly? Where are you driving?” Benson inclined his head and folded his hands across his che

Alita was shocked to see the door slide open. Benson just walked to his room, and they were the only two people that could open the door.She balled her fist, waiting to see the figure standing in front of the door. She couldn’t see the face of the woman but as the door slid wider, she recognized who it was.Freaking Charity!Charity was the least of people she could expect to see. Many questions raged through Alita’s mind but the most outstanding was how she could open the door.“Benson,” Alita Bellowed crossing her hands on her chest as she jotted her hips, giving Charity a once over.“Yeah, babe,” Benson answered from his room.“You have a visitor,” Alita pushed her lips forward as she swayed her body from side to side.“I don’t have plans to—“Hi there,” Charity flickered her fingers in the air, smiling excessively as she looked over at Benson. “I let myself in,” her eyes went round. She looked around and observed the living room. “Things have changed here, haven’t they?” she snic

At Sarah’s wedding, Alita wasn't the only one wishing to enjoy the bliss of a wedding day and, after it, the certainty that comes with elevating their commitment to a more permanent situation.Benson had the intention to propose to Alita the day he came back and met her in a pool of blood. He had planned it all head in his head. The band, everyone involved.He wanted it to be a prestigious surprise. She had always said she wished she was a princess, and he wanted to make her feel more than that. She was his queen, and he wanted to show her that she deserved to have everything she wanted.Benson felt he was ready to move forward with their relationship. She was perfect for him, and he needed to ensure that she remained his till the end of time.Before the morning he had intended to propose to her, he had planned how everything would go with everyone he thought necessary to involve. He would ask her out for a date and then surprise her when she got out of the house with her favorite ban

"Let's go on a date," Benson said pouring wine into two glasses form them. "We haven't gone anywhere, we haven't gone out ever since…" his eyes snapped close as memories of almost losing Alita to the jaw of death flashed through his mind–not sonething you wouldn't want to remember, not even randomly. "What do you think?" He asked.Alita's face lit up and she giggled sharply. "Are you serious right now?" She squinted at him as she extended her hand and collected her drink. She gingerly whirled the glass before a sip and moaning to the taste that surprised her. "This is amazing," she nodded and took another sip. "What in God's name do I say to that?" She pursed her lips and raised her chin, playfully scowling at him."I don't know," he laughed softly, looking the other way as set himself on the arm of the chair she was seated on."You must be high," Alita jabbed her finger into his side and he yelped moving away. "Should you when ask me about it? You could have surprised me," she scrunc

126Julie was Alita's only company as the days went by. As expected, everyone around her was distant. She would sit on the bed in Julie's room and talk to her, even though she knew Julie wouldn't understand what she was saying, it was comforting that she could talk to someone about the burden in her heart and how everyone all her loved ones were avoiding her.Sarah blocked Alita and cut all contacts from her. Alita went to their apartment and saw that Sarah had changed the lock. She went to Luke's house but didn't find anybody at home. It was while walking back to Benson's place that she realized they would have gone for their honeymoon.They say no mother could hate her own but it wasn’t looking like it for Alita. She hadn’t heard from her mother ever since her confession. He called but got no answer, texted but got no reply. She tried to go and see her at Chris’s apartment but couldn’t. One time, she was standing right in front of the door but froze when she raised her hand to knock

Dumbfounded and dwindling between anger and confusion, Benson cleared his throat. The place went absolutely silent. “Why didn’t you say anything about it? You could have told me. I feel betrayed right now,” he face-palmed. “I just want to go home,” he breathed heavily. “I can’t believe it at all. I just can’t believe our friendship was built on lies all this while. We promised to…” Sarah whined and cried. “All this while, Alita, I thought we were best friends. I told you everything and I thought you did the same,” she turned and wrapped her hands around Luke, looked up at him, and muttered, “please take me out of here.”“Please don’t leave me like this,” Alita extended her hand as she moaned. Her throat patched as she watched Luke lead Sarah out of the room. She was too weak to move and she couldn’t possibly follow after Sarah when Benson was there also preparing to leave.“Let’s go home,” Benson looked at Alita with pain in his eyes. She wiped her face and dragged herself up.Ivy sa
